P&G Releases “Strong” Mom-themed Olympic Commercial (VIDEO)

April 27, 2016 Kellie Freeze

It’s 100 days until the start of the Olympic games in Rio, and while organizers put finishing touches on the city and its venues, advertisers have already started releasing their Olympic-themed commercials. One of the Olympic traditions that I always enjoy is Procter & Gamble’s emotional ads under its “Thanks Mom” campaign. But this year, the first commercial that it has released touts a slightly edgier message, but pulls at your heartstrings, nonetheless. In the newly released ad “Strong,” the company again pays homage to the moms behind the athletes, but recognizes them more than a carpool driver, laundry washer and fixer […]

New to On Demand: Ride Along 2

April 26, 2016 Barb Oates

Ice Cube and Kevin Hart rekindle their comic chemistry in Ride Along 2, the sequel to the 2014 action-comedy Ride Along. While the smart cop/bumbling cop movie formula is all too familiar, the humor in this go-round is still centered around Hart and his shenanigans but is enhanced by an unusually diverse supporting cast that includes The Hangover’s Ken Jeong, The View’s Sherri Shepherd and Magic Mike’s Olivia Munn. A few things have changed since we last left the reluctant duo. James (Ice Cube) is still a hardcore detective at his Atlanta precinct and Ben Barber (Hart) … well, Ben […]

Recap: Blindspot Season 1, Episode 19: School Ties

April 25, 2016 Rachel Cericola

Last week, Blindspot stayed away from the usual formula and the plot did not revolve around Jane Doe’s (Jaimie Alexander) tattoos. This week, we’re back to business — and it’s a much-appreciated return. However, “In the Comet of Us” took a different approach than every other Blindspot episode. This week, we got to see how each member of our favorite FBI team handled the same situation, as well as the events that led to each one’s path. • BLINDSPOT recaps: Episode 1 | Episode 2 | Episode 3 | Episode 4 | Episode 5 | Episode 6 | Episode 7 | Episode 8 […]
